#98 Went golfing

Monday June 15, 2015

Hey everyone,
 I don't really have any desire to email.  Sorry.  I will see you guys in like 16 days.  I will tell you that we went golfing this morning.  We just did 9 holes but it took forever. I am probably really sun burned.  I have been doing pretty good.  The work has been going well.  I probably won't have anymore baptisms unless some sort of miracle happens.  So there still is a chance.  This week I have to go down to Mandaue.  It should be not fun.  At least I get to go see some other missionaries.  Basically escape the wilderness of San Remigio. I hope that when I get home I won't have too hard of a time.  Saturday I was thinking about going home and it was kind of scary. I don't think I am ready mostly because I will miss everything here.  I kind of wish I could take the Philippines home some way.  I know that I could do that if I married a filipina...That is an interesting option...I am just joking.  I don't think I would every do that.  Anyways I hope you guys are safe.  Have fun.

Love,


Elder Roskelley

#97 Still no running water

Monday June 1, 2015

Hello everyone,
 I hope all is well at home.  We are doing pretty good here.  We still haven't had running water.  We get it for about 2 hours around midnight and then no more.  We have just been using the well to shower.  It is a little difficult but kind of fun too.  I didn't think that I would have to do this on my mission.  This week has been pretty interesting.  I have worked a lot with the other elders and this next week I have some things to do to get ready to go home.  Time is moving too fast.  Right now I am really trying to focus on my mission .  Our area has been doing pretty good.  We have a couple investigators that are progressing and hopefully we can find some new ones that will progress also.  I made a promise to myself that I will leave the area a lot stronger than I found it.  So far that promise is going pretty good. .  I am emailing today because my companion was emergency transferred to Danao.  I traveled all day yesterday so today I am doing my p day.  My new comp is Elder Galleto.  He is pretty cool.  It should be a nice end of my mission.  I plan on going golfing next p-day and then next week I have to go to Mandaue for immigration stuff.  I am very busy right now.

Love,

 Elder Roskelley

#96 X-ray

Monday May 25, 2015

Hey everyone
 This week was hard again but we are doing good.  I don't have much time.  I have to get an x-ray later to see if I have TB.  Don't worry everyone does it.  I am not sick.  We have been showering at the well for this last week and we hope that get our running water back by tomorrow.  We will just have to pray.  thanks for your support.  Love you.

Love

#95 Last transfer call

Wednesday, May 20, 2015

Hello everyone,
  I am doing pretty good. We just got our transfer calls.  My companion and I are staying together so he will be my last companion.   This will probably be a pretty hard transfer.  This last week we didn't see a lot of success.  We have a couple good investigators which will hopefully progress.  I am glad that everyone is doing good.  I hope that time doesn't pass too slow.  I am giving it all I got and hopefully I can see some awesome things.  One thing that I have learned though is that usually there are miracles happening around us all the time but we don't always realize them.  I would like to invite everyone to consciously look for the Lords hand in your life.

Love

#93 Mission Conference

Monday, May 4, 2015

Hey,
 I am sorry that I don't have much time.  We have a zone activity later today and my comp was being lazy.  Next week I will skype you guys.  It will be about 11am here, so it should be about 9pm. I will try to call a little before that.  We just have a kind of weird schedule because we live kind of far from the internet shop.  This week has been pretty busy.  We had a pretty good mission conference with Elder Ardern of the Seventy.  It was pretty cool.  He and his wife are really smart.  I am glad that everyone is doing well at home. Love you all.

Love

Elder Roskelley
